**GAVE BIRTH TO 5 KITTENS**

My name is FERGIE. My Animal ID # is A1046645.
I am a female tortie domestic sh. The shelter thinks I am about 2 YEARS

I came in the shelter as a STRAY on 08/04/2015 from NY 11694, owner surrender reason stated was STRAY. I came in with Group/Litter #K15-025852.

8/8/15 Changed condition, not pregnant. Notes: Fergie was brought to the care center as a stray so we don’t have any behavioral history or tendencies previous to was seeing during the evaluation. She seems to not be thriving in this environment and at the time of the assessment Fergie was displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room and may require further investigation before placement in a home. She has tried to bite and is extremely fearful. Fergie currently does not tolerate petting or handling. The behavior department feels that placement with a New Hope Partner is the best option at this time. Reaction to assessor: was hiding when I approach cage When spoken quietly: continues to hide Reaction to door cage opening: becomes stiff, alert Reaction to touch: very fearful, starts to shake, growls, allows very limited petting before attempting to bite, Try picking cat up: did not attempt to pick the cat up, fractious behavior. Placement Determination: NewHope
